Best breakfasts in Sydney

If you're riding a bike to a quaint breakfast cafe after a stroll in the vintage markets, Clipper Cafe in Sydney’s inner west village is down your alley.

What started as a random idea of mounting a bicycle on the wall, has led to a full-fledged collection of two-wheeled, three-dimensional wallpaper.

Pot plants hang in this green shed on Glebe Point Road, but arguments usually rage over who sits under the bicycle. But everyone gets free WiFi.

The toasted muesli ($9) packs serious taste: pistachio, bran flakes, dried pineapple and honey-coated oats provide a contrast of gooey, crisp, flaky textures. It's served with yogurt and mixed berries.

For a bit of dizziness to a balanced breakfast, order the Tunisian date syrup on the side. It's perfumed rosewater scent balances the sweet bowl.

Kings Cross doesn’t have the best reputation going for itself when it comes to sober dining.

If you steer away from the Diving lamp and clubs, however, and pass on the greasy deluge of cheeseburgers and kebabs, good taste is only a few blocks away.

At this gentleman’s club-inspired café, sipping on a Manhattan can seem more fitting than coffee. But it’s the earthy aroma of Brazilian coffee beans that brings queues of customers.

The soft and fluffy ricotta pancakes ($14.50) with sour essence of grainy rhubarb and a thin layer of light vanilla cream, then topped with maple syrup, is an absolute hangover cure after a night out in the infamous Cross.

If you don’t mind huddling around a communal table whilst being surrounded with fresh produce, bright flowers and wagging dogs, then the Earth Food Cafe could be the end of your hippie trek.

The unpretentiousness of this organic cafe serving gluten-free food in the middle of Bondi Beach’s fashion strip is refreshing.

The simple boiled eggs ($11) are made just the way you’d cook a good breakfast at home.

They're served on 100 percent rye toast and topped with (chemical-free, of course) avacado, tomato and goat’s cheese -- you can taste every ingredient.
